What does Poppin Bands mean? | Rap Slang

Poppin’ Bands is slang for spending large amounts of money (thousands of dollars at least). The word “bands” refers to rubber bands which are often used to wrap large sums of money. In American slang, each “band” is considered $1,000. This slang term has become much more well known since the release of the song “Bandz A Make Her Dance” by Juicy J (featuring Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz).
